Shoes for Arctic Schools
The Northwest Arctic Borough School District serves eleven villages and approximately 1850 students. 90% of the students are Inupiaq Eskimo. This is a Title 1 school district which means most of the students are far below the poverty line and families struggle with basic needs due to the area’s remoteness, expense of supplies, and ability to live a sustainable lifestyle adhering to their cultural heritage. Subsistence hunting is a mainstay of daily life.
The All Saints outreach program hopes to raise enough funds through donations and corporate sponsorship to provide all NWABSD students from age 4 through 18 with a pair of shoes they would use within the school building. Basketball is key for kids in Alaska, just like football is king in Texas. Please join us as we build this new and exciting program! Donate online at All Saints Shoes for Arctic Schools.
Western Alaska Disaster Recovery
Typhoon Merbok recently hit the Western Alaska Coast Line during the fall subsistence harvest season, when the region’s Indigenous communities are stocking up food for the winter. Many areas have sustained major damage with housing, erosion and infrastructure (which in many places was already in a weakened condition). Please pray for these families as they struggle to clean up and rebuild.
If you would like to donate to the recovery efforts, visit Western Alaska Disaster Recovery Fund (Typhoon Merbok Response) at alaskacf.org/funds/western-ak-disaster-recovery-fund/.
